APOSTLE HEBER J. GRANT.
I feel in standing before you this
afternoon that it would not be becom-
inc in me to occupy very much of the
time. feel that it is much more ap-
prOpriate that those men that have
lived almost a lifetime with President
occasion. However, in as much as
have been requested to make few
remarks, | am willing to do so.
lean say OF President Taylor that he
lived faithful, honest and cOnScien-
tiOuS life: that be did all that was in
his power for the advancement OF the
work Of God upon the earth. He has
been faithful Latter day Saint, aud
I1 81 "a |
Latter-day Saint has had the privilege
OfTeceiying testimony of the Cos ;
pei, and those Of US that live true to ,
that testimony and that fill up life of
usefulness and do nothing that will I
rob Us Of the light Of the Holy Spirit,
when We come to lay down this body,
can have no greater thing sad Of us !
than that we have been faithful.
If the SONS and the daughters OF
President Taylor will initiate his eX-
simple; II they will be courageous in
nIghung for the cause Of God; if
they Will dOaS ne has done, they viii !
nave the privilege OF meeting him and I
ENJOYING MS society eternally. He has
H lH unto 4 good cid age. He has
uI!tu up the measure of his creation,
1u4 tleIe Is no man but can say that ,
S Te AaS oeen true to his own conscience.
10 40 matter what has been the obstacle
EeIGIe MN, ne has never faltered.
nc AdS always been firm and SteadfaSt
